<h2>The Help Menu</h2>

<p>The Eclipse Platform and SDK contain menu items for Help Contents, Search and 
Dynamic Help. A menu item to show the keyword index can be added to the help 
menu in an Eclipse based product by adding the following extension point to the 
plugin.xml file of the product plugin. The same approach will work equally well 
for a Rich Client application.</p>

&lt;extension point=&quot;org.eclipse.ui.menus&quot;&gt;<br>
